SOPHIA POINT RAINFOREST PROJECT

Sophia Point will conserve an area of pristine rainforest in the Guiana Shield and drive forward vital research in an unexplored corner of the planet. We will help deliver world-leading, in-depth analysis of the rainforest, wildlife and climate, driven by local, Guyanese research and science.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
Accounts have been filed late on 2 occasions over the last 2 years and the current period appears to have been extended
